I have always been a kind of person who is already scheming about breakfast before even getting in to bed for the night. And it is a kind of prerequisite as I don’t depend on refrigerated batter for making everyday breakfast unless it is unavoidable necessity. Idiyappam is a classic and filling breakfast, but the traditional method of preparing this akki shavige is very elaborate. In the morning hours when your hands are full, you can definitely afford to prepare this instant idiyappam using rava in substitute of traditional shavige. I bet no one can go wrong with this recipe, yes it is that easy.
In the daily grind of posting to a food blog, content is a king. You always need to outperform yourself by consistently posting quality content day after day, week after week and of course year after year. It is the key to build a successful food blog. All my efforts are towards the same meanwhile I am enjoying the process. 🙂
Idiyappam | Instant Idiyappam using Rava | Easy Breakfast
Ingredients
- Medium rava /sooji- 2 cups
- Salt- 1.5 tsp or to taste
Instructions
Method
- Add 2 cups of water and salt to a vessel, bring it to a rolling boil. Switch off, immediately add rava to it.
- Mix it well using ladle to form soft dough. When it is still warm knead it well with your hands and bring it together as dough.
- Make cylindrical shaped ball and fill idiyappam press.I have used murukku press with ompodi(plain sev) disc for this.
- Now close the lid and press inside the Idli pan as concentric circles. Steam these Idli pan for 15 minutes. I steamed in pressure cooker for 5 minutes in medium flame then 10 minutes in low flame.
- After 15 minutes keep the steamed pans outside the steamer and let the idiyappam to cool. Basic idiyappam is ready. Serve it with chutney, sambar or any side dish of your choice.
Note
- If you are making this idiyappam in large quantity, then keep the dough covered with a damp cloth. Or you can make the dough in batches.
- If the dough becomes dry, pressing would be difficult. Ensure it is damp.
- Do not make too many swirls inside the pan to ensure even cooking.
- Once the basic idiyappam is ready, you can make lemon idiyappam, idiyappam chitranna or any of such kind.
